Just because it is a Hanover horse I will guess that the lady driving Caddie Hanover is Lawerance Shepards wife or one of his daughters.Alma ,Pat, or, Charlett

looking, I'm not sure any of the other Sheppard daughters (besides Alma; even Alma didn't race any horses, she participated in time trials, and many are not aware that she set records with other horses prior to Dean Hanover) ever raced any horses.

Charlotte Sheppard-Devan has owned some very famous horses and is the only living sister today.

Pat Sheppard-Williams is the mother of Russell Williams of Hanover.---------

The father of the gal in the picture owned a farm that was originally a dairy farm in Cheaspeake City, MD., of which the name was Bohemia Point Farm. The daughter of this gal is known quite well today, although primarily behind the scenes, where she is quite active. The husband of this gal, had/has (?) both a nephew and a great nephew with the same first name that are quite well-known horsemen.

Working in the program dept was a charming young lady named Judy. With much time on his hands the young man every morning would go to the program office to get a program.

She says "aren't you gay"."hell no what makes you think so"."Well the program director is gay so we all thought you were his""No I come up here to get a program and get to know you better".
